The Pirate Google Bay raises its flags

When, oh when, are they gonna learn it is pretty much senseless to even attempt to hunt down the pirates? Right or wrong, P2P file sharing happens. And suing the creators of the popular Pirate Bay isn’t gonna stop it. And now, in a rather obvious attempt to support that fact, someone went out and created a The Pirate Google Bay. And you have to appreciate how bright and colorful they made their ship!

The Pirate Google Bay is a custom Google search made to find torrent files. They say right on their home page that:

“Please Note: This site is not affiliated with Google, it simply makes use of Google Custom Search to restrict your searches to Torrent files. You can do this with any regular Google search by appending your query with filetype:torrent.”

But slapping the “Google” name right on there sure makes it sound all official like, eh? Ahhhh….I can see a lawsuit against Google brewing anyway. That one should be entertaining. I mean, even a recent article in Forbes magazine said that Google itself is an incredibly efficient torrent tracker. That’s not any big secret.
